Interesting premise, but I really enjoyed Watchmen, and hated BvS.

I actually don’t hate it, as both a play on Spidey’s integration to the MCU proper and also a reference to the high school setting that’s been central to the pitch for this reboot from the start. Maybe, as someone else suggested upthread, it actually takes place in the lead-up to the homecoming dance, or something.…

You have a reasonable expectation of privacy in your home/hotel, which, yes, is being violated by D’Angelo Russell. But that’s a different issue than whether Fameolous publishing that video is also a privacy violation, as a publication of private facts, or is protected as newsworthy.

I just consider this DC’s Iron Man 2. It’s just setup for the next few movies.

Looks fine to me, too! I generally don’t like CGI talking anything in a live action movie, but found nothing particularly jarring about the talking animals in these scenes. And that’s leaving aside the possibility that this isn’t even the completed version of these effects.

Oh, yeah, sure. Probably teaching those puppies to do vicious teeth-first takeout slides... SMDH...

As a rational human, I’m trying to remind myself that the Mets rotation is really deep and it’s only Spring.

I encountered a link to this post on Twitter, immediately after several tweets about my home state Florida Gov. Rick Scott signing new and draconian abortion restrictions into law. So, thanks for rescuing my afternoon ever so slightly. Momentary distractions FTW.

The DCU version of this would just be Bruce Wayne watching scenes from Man of Steel through his Bat Binoculars and grimacing.

That’s exactly the point, though. Marvel built up to this, through a dozen films. DC tried to do it without establishing any of the backstory, the relationships or the emotional stakes. I don’t know for sure if CW will be good, but it has a better chance to be because its creators have put in the sweat equity. BvS was…

I suspect that Bucky will have a lot to do with it, with Stark viewing him as an international super-powered criminal and Steve as a brainwashed innocent. Also, as others have speculated (but as far as I’ve seen not reported, so I don’t think it’s a spoiler) I’m guessing that there will be something personal between…

In reality, Jay Glazer or Mort would have been reading text messages about this live on air about 10 minutes after the NFL called a single team about it.

I am inclined to be skeptical, because Balzer takes his conspiracy theory even further. He intimates that the NFL instructed all the teams picking after Sam’s selection to avoid taking DE Ethan Westbrooks, who, in Balzer’s telling, the Rams would have chosen if they weren’t compelled to take Sam.

In Golden State, the big question is whether to pursue a historic 73-win season or rest up for another finals run.

As someone who finds Bobbi and Hunter to be two of the most consistently fun characters on Agents of SHEILD, I’m not sure how to feel about Marvel’s Most Wanted. I like the idea of a show built around those characters, but also worry that AoS will be a slog without the levity they so often provide.

Grown up Murdock, portrayed by Ben Affleck, is kind of creepy - the entire scene where he meets Elektra and essentially stalks her is cringeworthy at best - sleeping in what’s essentially a water-filled casket after downing a whole bunch of painkillers. I get that it’s to keep the sound out, but how did he not drown?

As a Jets fan, I really should not be allowed to complain about this, since the Bears traded us Brandon Marshall (1,500 yards and 14 tds) for similarly low compensation last year, also basically because they disliked him personally. But, man, you’d think they might have learned something from that?

“So, if no one keeps it in check, which there is no one keeping it in check, first of all, no one wants to bite the hand that fed them or the hand that feeds them today. The only liaison we had was Joe Torre. It’s like Washington DC. Everybody starts out with good intentions. You can’t beat them, join ‘em.”

I have said out loud in public while mostly sober that I’d at least be interested to see what he could do with the Marshall/Decker WR tandem and these RBs. Related: I am trapped in a purgatory of my own design.

To be a Jets fan is to agonize along with your franchise as they choose among the several bad options available to them. Pay “starter money” to a 33-year-old journeyman coming off his best season? Sign a one-time wunderkind in RGIII who by all outward appearances was psychologically dismantled by the NFL’s worst…
